kraftwerk: The DIY Cardboard Chair

Designer Tom de Vrieze sent us a gallery's worth of photos of his cardboard chair design he's offering as a DIY plan to construct yourself. The origami style seating plan weighs just under 4lbs when finished and is held together using polyurethane expansion foam inside to simplify and strengthen the chair's construction process, making this a possible good solution for those of you looking for a budget seating solution...

'kraftwerk' is available at Tom de Vrieze's website here for about $9.50. Total cost to build the chair is estimated at $25, including materials. And if you liked this, be sure to check out our past post showcasing various other (and even more elaborate) cardboard furniture.
